[Captain Maxx Power]

Just to double check you are dying dying, not just being beaten to near death? Because this is a scripted battled.

[Evastio]

What version are you playing? It might be glitched.

[Ichimonji]

I would recommend that you revive Rosa first of all so that she can help in reviving everybody else. After that keep Kain in the air, and use Bio with Rydia among other strong spells that she has. Have Rosa the primary healer, and switch between healer and attacker with Cecil. I forget who the other person in this battle is, I think it might be Yang, but just do whatever with that guy.

Now if Golbez isn't even letting you go as far as reviving one character, I would suggest leveling or just trying it again until you get lucky and he hits Cecil next turn insted of the person you revived.

[Seniorhobo]

ok ill try all that, but he gets far too many attacks in a row he gets like 4 attacks before i can do anything and they all hit like 400

That's a pretty decent. You should be doing fine. Just lots of healing items

[Seniorhobo]

[Evastio]

I was at level 25 in the Zot Tower. You could defeat it at level 23 I guess. To be able to beat it for sure I'd be at level 27.

[Seniorhobo]

[ScottNUMBERS]

If Golbez is too fast for you, you may want to lower your battle speed. That can help a lot. Golbez shouldn't be too hard if you make Cecil and Rydia use Phoenix Downs to revive your fallen party members at the beginning of the battle. With Rosa healing, Kain jumping, Cecil and Yang attacking and Rydia summoning, Golbez should be going down quite quickly.

hurry to kains turn and jump that way he doesnt get hit and you start with kain cecil and rydia i found out on accident

[obsessed_wif_yuna]

i just attacked.

Yes, having Kain jump before Golbez uses his attacks that paralyze and slowly kill everyone would be very useful, but if he doesn't get a turn and manage to jump before everyone's paralyzed, Kain will be paralyzed and knocked out too. It's actually a bit hard to make Kain jump before Golbez's attacks, especially in FFIV Advance where his jumping seems to take a lot longer, and if you reload the game, you'll have to fight Calbrena again.

[Eiko Guy]

you should set rosa up to where cecil uses phoenix down and then rydia uses cure2

[Tempest]

I don't know what version you're playing but, I'm pretty sure that in all versions he is weak against fire. Equip Cecil with the Fire sword and use Fire 2 from Rydia. He should go down pretty fast even at that level. And yeah, it does help to have Kain in that fight. You shouldn't need to waste a Pheonix Down, Life, whatever in reviving any of the characters.
